Features: "The Owl Academic Translation Series" is a series of books planned, compiled, and edited by many renowned scholars in China. It advocates for a truly global perspective. This series is not only about the history and society of the marginal regions of the contemporary world but also includes studies on the experiences of Western society, also known as developed societies. This book provides many direct descriptions from those who experienced the tragic scenes of displacement, forced to abandon their land and homes, and flee thousands of miles during the Partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. It analyzes and studies these events from a historical perspective, directing its critical focus squarely at colonialism and bringing forth profound themes that touch upon human nature.
